Yonge Street taken over by pedestrians! THE HORROR!! Where will all the drivers go?! It’s unfortunate this was intergraded into @OpenStreetsTO h/t @YDToronto @YDSquare @DowntownYonge @Walk_TO #OpenStreetsTO

Market Street, on the west side of Toronto’s famed St. Lawrence Market, is back to being car-free for the summer. We’re no Paris of Montreal, but it’s something

We have these glimpses of progress here in #TorontoDanforth. We even had @shelleycarroll pop by to see what all the excitement was about via @GerrardIndiaBaz on Gerrard St E. Could you imagine opening up parts of Queen St and Danforth Av on a regular basis? #OpenStreetsTO

@Peter_Tabuns How is @BloorYorkville able to create space for pedestrians but this is still a “we don’t know what to do on Danforth Av @peter_tabuns? How many years has #TorontoDanforth hosted Taste? Close the streets to cars… Done! #OpenStreetsTO

@JohnLeesonTO @jsquaredink @BromptoningLove @jnyyz @anejo57 Since they threatened to "shut down the financial district" some roads were closed to car traffic. So we had our very own #BromptonTO #OpenStreets ride on University Ave ! Might be the only #OpenStreetsTO ride this year. @oliviachow - Please bring back @OpenStreetsTO ! 3/3

With so many children taking part in #PlayOnTheRunway, it definitely had the #ActiveTO/#OpenStreetsTO vibe that many in #TorontoDanfortg would remember. The @tdndp’s elected municipal rep and @peter_tabuns are refusing to bring either back. How do we fix this? #BikeTO #WalkTO

#GoByBikeToronto Won’t lie, this is pretty cool. Riding across a runway! <Video> Laughing at the fact that this space for airplanes is being taken over by bicycles

This year Montreal is transforming 10 Pedestrian Streets again, and doing it even EARLIER! “Pedestrian streets have become a signature of the Montreal summer and a symbol of the dynamism of our commercial arteries.” — Mayor @Val_Plante. Such smart policy! https://t.co/e2vutozv9J

...So #OpenStreetsTO is back? Cool! Awesome that a tailgate party shuts down a few streets. So clearly this car dependency thing isn't as important as a few mayoral candidates are letting on. Thanks @MapleLeafs Good Luck on the path to the #StanleyCup #LeafsForever

We’re cheering for @MapleLeafs as they begin their 2nd-round NHL playoff series. Starting at noon, Bremner Blvd, from Lower Simcoe St to York St and York St to the @ScotiabankArena will be closed for Tailgate events. #LeafsForever #GoLeafsGo #TrafficAlertTO

We needed @kristynwongtam to create our last #OpenStreetsTO in #TorontoDanforth in 2016! I can’t imagine the @tdndp’s elected municipal rep or the Climate Crisis Critic MPP @peter_tabuns flexing their #PoliticalWill to create a Champs-Élysées type car free space in 2023! Sad.

Paris has the Champs-Élysées plus hundreds of streets car-free every Sunday. #ParisRespire 52 weeks. Toronto's #SummerStreets or #OneTO, combining best of #ActiveTO & #OpenStreetsTO can be better. Why not? June, July, August, every Sunday, 10-4 in a #TO4Everyone. Doable!

A place to meet each other as equals. This is what I love the most of #OpenStreets programs. Before immigrating to Canada, in Bogota I took a small program Ciclovia, had few kilometers and participants, multiplied to 121Km/75mi every Sunday & holiday, over 1 million PEOPLE. Joy!
